Highly-rated overnight sitters - Kinard
“Marina and her family were absolutely incredible. Buddha was treated like the family dog and made me feel at such peace knowing where she was. Our flight home was delayed due to a snow storm and Marina was quick to help and treated us with patience/understanding. Will be using again!”
“Patience IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. She is very Loving & caring for you fur baby, This is the first time we have left our baby with someone other than family, & we were worried how we would all do. After meeting Patience we felt he was in excellent hands. She was in constant contact by sending pictures of him throughout the day. He was there for 2 weeks & settled in really good after couple days. He gets anxious when we leave him anywhere but Patience calmed our fears. By day 3 he was rolling on his back playing catch with a baby. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PATIENCE FOR ANY & ALL CARE NEEDS. Our fur baby is 16 & really LOVED IT THERE. Her place is very calming, clean, & well maintained. HE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!! YHZNK YOU PATIENCE you can be confident your Durban is well cared for with patience.”
“This was my first time ever using the Rover app and I was nervous to find someone who would treat my dog as if he was home. Rebekah was absolutely amazing. She was kind and really treated my dog as if he was her own. She has 2 dogs of her own and although they are much bigger than my dog, they got along great. I would book her again!”
“Ashton was great, I was very nervous using this service, but she is awesome. She sent pictures, gave her a bath at the end of the stay, and my puppy was happy and healthy when I picked her up. Definitely will be using this service and Ashton again.”
“My plans for someone to watch my dogs feel through last minute and Annie saved my trip. Luna Roxie were well cared for and came home tired and happy. If I ever need a sitter again I will definitely try to use her. Thanks for loving them and keeping them safe Anne. You're awesome!”
“Shannon and her family were fantastic! Super friendly and easy to work with. She kept me updated the whole time and they took great care of my pup. Will definitely be back!”
“This was dog Copper's first time staying away from home, so there were some worries from my wife and I. However, as soon as I dropped him off with Wendy and Rob our worries were put at ease! Wendy and Rob do a great job of communicating and sending photo updates each day. They have a nice home with a spacious fenced in area. We will definitely be repeat customers in the future!”
“Alissa is fantastic. She took very good care of our little chihuahua Lilo. I loved getting the picture updates and communication was top notch. She got back to me very quickly on every text or message I sent. Her house is pet friendly in a great location. Lilo doesn't like most people. She seemed to bond with Alissa, which is saying something about her. It tells me, she is kind, loving and trustworthy. Which I'd the only way to get Lilo to like you. I would not hesitate to use her pet sitting services again, and would highly recommend her as the perfect fit for taking care of any dog. Thank you Alissa for taking such good care of little Lilo!! AAAA++++”
“Destiny was absolutely wonderful with Athena! She sent me pics and updates the whole time she stayed there. I will definitely be using Destiny from now on, and now I feel comfortable being able to go out of town knowing Athena is in great hands with Destiny!”
About: What sets me apart is my medical background and hands-on animal experience across a wide range of species. I worked veterinarian settings for 6-10 years, so I’m comfortable monitoring health changes, administering basic medications, and recognizing early signs of illness or distress. Safety and attentiveness come naturally to me. I also hold a Bachelors in agriculture, which gives me a strong understanding of animal behavior, nutrition, and proper husbandry. I regularly foster puppies and dogs, as well as cats and kittens, so I’m experienced with: • Potty training & crate training • Socialization and basic obedience • Bottle feeding & neonatal care • Senior pet comfort and mobility support Your pets won’t just be watched — they’ll be understood, monitored, and genuinely cared for like family. As a stay-at-home mom, my days are centered around caring for others — which makes pet visits a natural and dedicated part of my routine. I structure my schedule around reliable drop-ins, giving each pet calm, unhurried attention and consistent care throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules closely, refresh water, administer medications if needed, and provide attentive companionship tailored to each pet’s personality — whether that’s playtime, enrichment, quiet company, or extra cuddles. I’m respectful of your home, clean in my habits, and mindful of details. I send consistent updates with photos so you can feel fully at ease while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, relaxed pet and a home just as you left it.
“Reya is amazing! I left my dog with her for 2 weeks, and I have never felt so reassured and comfortable. This isn't something I've done often and was so hard for me to leave Woody for 2 weeks, but Reya was so patient and it was so obvious she cared. Will 100% book with her again and recommend her to anyone who wants a trusted and caring person to look after their dog.”
“Kinsey was so wonderful! She was immediately in contact, flexible with drop off/pick up, and kept us updated on our boy. She has such a great set up/yard for dogs too! We were so so happy with leaving our golden in her care.”
“GREAT SITTER!!! Absolutely amazing. My pup is super anxious and I could tell he felt right at home. I’m so grateful!! We had some challenges on the trip away and she was so patient with me. I have so much appreciation”
“Brittany was amazing! She helped us out last minute and was very responsive. I appreciate her taking her time to get to know my dogs. She sent pictures and videos. The puppies looked and seemed to be comfortable and have lots of fun. Totally recommend Brittany!!”
About: Experienced with a variety of pets, personalities, and temperaments, including pets with different routines and needs. I’m dependable, attentive to detail, comfortable with walks and exercise, and experienced with administering medications when needed. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully and provide consistent, responsible and loving care. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to spend more time with your pet throughout the day.

“She was very good with my fur baby today was super hot so my callie didn't get it long, walked, but she took her out for a little walk, but the fact that she was concerned that she was getting overheated really touches me because my husband worries about that all the time, we will definitely be using her again”
About: I’ve owned a few dogs growing up and I took care of feeding, bathing, and walking them every day and walks were every other day. I’m off work usually by 3:00-3:30, Monday through Friday but have weekends off. Your fur babies are welcome into our home whenever a play date is scheduled or if you need a weekend get away I’m more than happy to come to your home to take care of them. Their comfortability is my #1 priority. I make sure while I am at the owners home I either take their dog(s) on a walk or if there’s a yard go outside and play for 30-40 min to get the zoomies out; then go back inside, feed and relax, outside break one more time before I leave.
About: I haven’t had the opportunity to take care of another person’s cat. However, I have experience from my own cat and one that I rescued with my father and younger sister. I also take care of the neighbors cats by leaving them some food outside.
About: Hello! I’m Ashley! I’m a stay at home mom to an energetic and bright eyed little boy and the wife of a hardworking firefighter. I’m a passionate animal lover and pet mom to our 10 month old Silver Lab named Peppa. I’ve been a pet owner since I can remember. Growing up my family had our fair share of pets around from cats and dogs to ducks and lizards! Every time my family and I have to go out of town- we always struggle to find pet sitters! So, I thought I’d offer my services here on Rover to help out my fellow pet parents! I know how difficult it can be to find a trusting pet sitter. Pets definitely become a part of the family- so please know that I will treat your fur baby with the utmost care as if they were my own. I offer in home doggy day care and overnight sitting as well as dog walks, feeding/watering and making your pup comfy while you’re away! My family and I are very active- which is good news for those pups with lots of energy! We love hikes, biking, beach walks and dog parks! My son loves playing fetch with the pups- so he will be great entertainment for your fur baby! Upon leaving your pet with us- we ask that you leave with us emergency contact info and vet information, as well as any special medications, foods or comfort toys or objects etc. I believe every animal is unique and should be treated as so! I can’t wait to meet your pup!
About: My name is Alicia. I’ve been a teacher for 18 years. I have had pets for as long as I can remember. As far as “on my own” pets; I’ve owned five dogs, a cat, 4 gerbils, and 2 ferrets. I have experience in medication administration. I had a seizure baby as well so I’m familiar with them also. I have always been super close with my pets and they are allowed free roam of the house and love snuggling on the furniture. I wish I could provide in home services, but currently have a foster staying with me. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. I’m currently working flexible hours, so I have varying availability most days! When doing drop by visits to feed or give potty breaks, I make sure to spend a little extra time giving them attention. I’ve found animals can get their feelings hurt a bit when we rush in and rush out on a care visit. I want them to feel special and know that everything is good until your return. I love animals and am familiar with many different sizes/breeds. Just let me know what your specific pet needs/preferences are and I will make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and loved.
“Ashton was very helpful, courteous, and professional, and she was able to coax our more reclusive cats out for interaction during drop in visits! We loved getting reports and photos for each visit, which helped us feel secure that our furry babies were being treated well in our absence. Definitely recommend Ashton for your pet sitting/drop in visit needs!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kinard
“This was our very first experience with Rover. We brought our two fur babies with us to PCB. We had rescued our second just two weeks prior, which didn't give us any plan time once we got to PCB. Lyudmila was quick to respond. We agreed on details and she made everything go smoothly. She and her husband even came to pick both of them up on the first day. We got frequent updates and pics. We would definitely use her again!”
About: We’re a pet-loving couple with three small, spoiled pups of our own, and we’ll treat your fur babies like family too! We have a fully fenced yard for safe playtime and plenty of love and attention to give. After moving from Tennessee and now managing three beachside properties of our own, we’re excited to open our home to more furry friends. We truly love animals, and since my husband won’t let me get another dog (yet!), this is the perfect way for us to share our love of animals. We’re retired and manage our three beach properties, which allows us to be home and available 24/7—unless we’re away visiting family or friends. Our flexible schedule and home based lifestyle make it easy to give your pets constant care, attention, and affection. We’d love to welcome your fur babies into our home and treat them like part of the family! We have three small dogs and two cats who are truly spoiled with lots of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles. That’s exactly how we’ll care for your pets, too. Our home has a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and pets are welcome to relax indoors just like part of the family.
About: We own one dog and had two dogs before that. Dogs feel comfortable and loved here. No matter if short or long stays and big or small, old or young dog - there's always room and fun to be had. My husband and I grew up with dogs and can't be without. We have toys and some treats but individual dog-approved is always better. When boarding a dog over a time period that requires feeding I expect food to be provided. While I take any dog and treat it like my own I need to know in advance if there are medical or behavioral issues. I'm a stay-at-home mom of four little ones (10-2yo) We get up early every morning and go to bed rather late. I have a fenced yard, a super friendly dog and my kids grew up with dogs so know how to treat/ not treat dogs. I can also separate dogs if needed. Dogs are always loosely supervised. I am a stay-at-home mom, homeschooling 3 out of 4 kids and so am extremely flexible to all needs of your fur baby. My yard is fenced in for drop-offs that enjoy outside and we have a separate room if a dog requires a calmer environment than the business of a bigger family. I grew up with various dogs and sized dogs. I know how to handle most tempers that are not aggressive. I understand every dog has its own personality and timeline. We have two cars so I am available to drive out for drop-ins and walking.
About: From a young age, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to caring for animals. As a child, I began pet sitting for my neighbors and volunteering at the local Humane Society which eventually led me to the veterinary field. With over three years of experience as a veterinary technician, I later transitioned my focus to animal rescue and rehabilitation, along with pet sitting full time. I have extensive experience with a large variety of different breeds, both dogs and cats, as well as with birds, pocket pets and reptiles. I possess both my K9 CPR and first aid certifications, along with a comprehensive understanding of animal medicine gained from my previous experience as a veterinary technician. The safety and well-being of your pets are my foremost priorities while they are under my care. I am dedicated to providing both you and your pet with peace of mind during your time apart. As a full-time pet sitter with my own business, pet care is the centerpiece of my daily routine. Therefore, I can typically provide care on short notice if necessary. Positive reinforcement and strict safety precautions will be implemented while your pet is in my care. Treats will be offered to help encourage positive behavior, please notify me of any food allergies prior to our session. Nose to nose contact with other dogs and/or people while on walks/in my care will be avoided unless prior consent is granted. (All treats provided are homemade by me using simple, high-quality ingredients. Most are single-ingredient options such as dehydrated chicken, turkey, or duck. Some varieties may include natural additions like egg or oat flour. I prepare my own treats to ensure full transparency of ingredients and to minimize the risk of tummy troubles from unfamiliar additives, preservatives, or unnecessary fillers)
“Jessie was able to watch our two dogs last minute. Our dogs loved the pool and back yard. It was the perfect place for our dogs while we did beach stuff. I highly recommend Jessie for doggy daycare”
About: I’m available 24/7, I have several years of experience with animals, I’ve been around them my whole life. I’ve rescued several dogs. All of differen breeds. I’m open to any size or weight.

Looking forward to getting to meet new pups and spoil them. I am very experienced in bulldogs. English bulldogs to be specific. I am aware that they cannot be outside for very long in the heat because they get hot easy. I think I would be a great fit for your dogs! I’m a full time hair stylist but only live a few minutes away from work so i’m able to come home every couple hours to let the dogs out! I also have a dog that had back surgery so he requires extra care! I’m home every couple hours daily. I have a fenced yard and extra crates if needed! My house is set up to be separated if your animals prefers some alone time. I have tons of toys and treats for your babies as well!

“Ashley did a great job with Bode, this our first experience using Rover and we are very impressed. Ashley kept us informed during the day and sent photos. Best de was very well taken care of for sure!”
“Ashton is dependable & I feel very comfortable leaving Louie in her care. She goes beyond the basics & provides a welcoming home-away-from-home for my standard poodle. I feel very fortunate that I found a true gem on River, & I highly recommend Ashton as a pet caregiver for your fur baby(ies).”
“We were so lucky to get Tessa to dog sit Max. She spoiled him as much as we do. Max was so happy to go to the next day, so I knew she past the test for a great sitter! We are from out of town, and had to schedule the last minute! What a great experience 😍”
About: I have had pets in my life ever since I was little. So I love helping take care of them. I also am very good with puppies and teaching them new tricks, and helping with potty train. I also love helping keep dogs very active, or just chill with them and cuddle! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of free time. All days of the week are good for me. I’m even available on weekends if needed. I have a fenced in backyard. I also have a dog of my own, who loves to play with others and gets along with all sizes. He loves to share his toys or just play together. Or if it’s in your own home, anywhere your fur baby loves to play! I also have dog parks around for your baby to play with or without others, and a nice neighborhood to walk around. Or we can walk around your neighborhood as well!
“Thank you Keira for opening up your home to my girls 🐶🐶. Having a great sitter is a priority when I need to leave my girls in someone else’s hands. I have zero regrets with Keira. She was fast to respond, very kind and flexible. I was impressed when she already knew and called my girls by their name without introduction. It’s the small things. ❤️ Def will return to her as a sitter and certainly recommend.”

“This was my first time ever using the Rover app and I was nervous to find someone who would treat my dog as if he was home. Rebekah was absolutely amazing. She was kind and really treated my dog as if he was her own. She has 2 dogs of her own and although they are much bigger than my dog, they got along great. I would book her again!”
“Ashton was great, I was very nervous using this service, but she is awesome. She sent pictures, gave her a bath at the end of the stay, and my puppy was happy and healthy when I picked her up. Definitely will be using this service and Ashton again.”
“My plans for someone to watch my dogs feel through last minute and Annie saved my trip. Luna Roxie were well cared for and came home tired and happy. If I ever need a sitter again I will definitely try to use her. Thanks for loving them and keeping them safe Anne. You're awesome!”
“Shannon and her family were fantastic! Super friendly and easy to work with. She kept me updated the whole time and they took great care of my pup. Will definitely be back!”
“This was dog Copper's first time staying away from home, so there were some worries from my wife and I. However, as soon as I dropped him off with Wendy and Rob our worries were put at ease! Wendy and Rob do a great job of communicating and sending photo updates each day. They have a nice home with a spacious fenced in area. We will definitely be repeat customers in the future!”
“Alissa is fantastic. She took very good care of our little chihuahua Lilo. I loved getting the picture updates and communication was top notch. She got back to me very quickly on every text or message I sent. Her house is pet friendly in a great location. Lilo doesn't like most people. She seemed to bond with Alissa, which is saying something about her. It tells me, she is kind, loving and trustworthy. Which I'd the only way to get Lilo to like you. I would not hesitate to use her pet sitting services again, and would highly recommend her as the perfect fit for taking care of any dog. Thank you Alissa for taking such good care of little Lilo!! AAAA++++”
“Destiny was absolutely wonderful with Athena! She sent me pics and updates the whole time she stayed there. I will definitely be using Destiny from now on, and now I feel comfortable being able to go out of town knowing Athena is in great hands with Destiny!”
“GREAT SITTER!!! Absolutely amazing. My pup is super anxious and I could tell he felt right at home. I’m so grateful!! We had some challenges on the trip away and she was so patient with me. I have so much appreciation”
“Brittany was amazing! She helped us out last minute and was very responsive. I appreciate her taking her time to get to know my dogs. She sent pictures and videos. The puppies looked and seemed to be comfortable and have lots of fun. Totally recommend Brittany!!”
“We just picked up our babies Tony and Ernie. It looks like they had so much fun with Jessie, her dogs and her swimming pool. Jessie is very responsive and of course we will bring our babies back again when needed. Thank you Jessie🤍”
About: Lifelong owner - Great Dane, Pit-bull, Puggle, German Shepherd + cats. I grew up with a Great Dane (gentle giants + large breed care), a Pit-bull (high energy, strong, total love bug – Big on positive reinforcement), a Puggle (small dog sass + sniffy walks), and cats, so I’m comfortable with any size, breed or personality. I currently have a German Shepherd, who is friendly, social, and great with other dogs. He’s up-to-date on vaccines and loves having playmates. Your dog will get a built-in buddy for supervised play in our big fenced backyard, but I always do slow introductions and can keep them separate if needed for meals/naps. If your dog refers people only, just let me know and I’ll manage it. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11 – boarding, daycare, walks, droppings, puppies to seniors. Very comfortable with basic training: sit, stay, crate, training, potty training, leash, manners, no jumping, and sticking to your routine. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home all day. Dogs here get potty breaks every 1-2 hours in the backyard, lots of exercise, photo updates, and never left alone for long. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so pet care is my full daily routine and I’m home 24/7. Dogs get potty breaks every 1-2 hours in our big fenced backyard, morning and afternoon play sessions, walks, training practice, and lots of cuddles. I have a friendly German Shepherd who loves play buddies, and we spend most of the day outside. Available for boarding and daycare 7 days a week, including holidays. Safety is my top priority. Big fully fenced backyard with supervised play only – dogs are never outside alone. Small, clean, dog-proofed home, dogs never left alone long. Slow introductions with my friendly German Shepherd, separate feeding/sleeping if needed. Daily photo and video updates, I follow your feeding and crate routine exactly, and happy to do Meet and Greets first. I believe pets are just people with fur ❤️
“Amber was absolutely AMAZING! I can't leave enough stars! She sent me pictures daily and she was very accommodating and made Ace’s stay absolutely wonderful and worry-free for me. I highly recommend her.”
“Allie is a loving professional through and through! She took Sterling pupper in for a weekend boarding visit and it felt like she was sent off to a doggo play and spa 😄☺️. Allie gave many many updates while caring for Sterling and also sent the BEST pictures while she was visiting. I will definitely be requesting her in the future for any dog care needs!”
